Forgive me. Forgive me for not asking your forgiveness. For not accepting you as a savior. For not believing the mythology embedded in the narratives. For not condemning the subsequent religion as inattentive to your instruction. For condoning the charlatans who steal money wielding your image. For tolerance of the spiritual quagmire permitting no advance. For passiveness at the psychological torture and centuries of persecution performed in your name. All in the name of an individual who taught the simple supremacy of Love... Your memory deserves a better testament. -fr
